Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 1406

These puppets seemed endless as no matter how many these three killed, more and more kept coming. "Something is wrong," the woman said. They’ve killed so many puppets, but the number never disappears.

"You’re right," her husband agreed. "Monk?"

"We are in an illusion."

"What?"

"The first wave of the enemy were actual puppets, but afterward, most of them were illusions.

"Damn it, why didn’t you say anything?"

"And rob you of an opportunity of enlightenment through pain? Donor, why would I do such a thing?" The Suffering Monk looked at him, genuinely puzzled why he asked such a stupid question.

"Damn it, I forgot these evil monks are all psychopaths,’ the man said to his wife through divine sense.

"Now is not the time to argue with him," his wife placated him. "Let’s deal with the illusion first," They each took out an artifact, a cauldron with sand, and an incense burner. The man put the incense burner into the sand, immediately releasing a strange aroma that filled the surroundings. Sunlight descended from the clouds as most of the puppets disappeared.

Boom!

"Watch out," the man yelled as he condensed his black wind into the densest shield he could manifest. While the puppets distracted these people, the ships had enough time to power up their cannons for one massive and mighty attack. What’s more, Commander Shi Ping used one of the most destructive elements: lightning.

The result of this attack was a hole in the man’s chest, and the woman was missing her left arm.

"Confirm injuries in two of the targets."

"What about the monk?" Shi Ping asked.

"He appeared intact."

The commander squinted. Despite the man’s heart being obliterated, the commander knew this was not a severe injury. As law beings, Tier 7 cultivators do not have major weaknesses in their hearts and brains. Their souls are the crux of their survival. Of course, these cannons used the power of law, meaning they would still be injured and weakened.

"Prepare to deploy the Law Domain at a moment’s notice," Shi Ping commanded.

"Sir, we are using a tremendous amount of power and energy," someone warned. Ultimately, their creations were not as perfect as artifacts, meaning they had limitations. The commander had already ordered the activation of the Annihilation Cannon and the Great Guardian Shield, which were the two other things that required the most energy. Now, he activated the third most consuming thing. At this rate, this ship won’t last long.

"Just do it," Shi Ping said. He was one of the best commanders in all the bases, and the reason was due to his observation skills and intuition. He knew something was wrong with the monk, so he prepared early.

"As you wish."

…

The woman regrew her arm, and the hole in the man’s chest closed, but their expression was pale. However, the battle had just started. Fifteen 7-A puppets surrounded the team, with each allocated five puppets, and that’s not mentioning the other pilots and puppets working with these 7-A elites.

The 6-B and lower squads immediately suffered tremendous casualties at the hands of these three, but with their sacrifices, the 7-A puppets barely managed to hold against these people. Stay updated through freewebnovel

"I’ve had enough of these things," the woman suddenly yelled as she activated her Proving Dao Artifact — a red necklace. The ability was ordinary as it simply boosted her Flame Spells and Techniques, but that was enough for her.

[Heavenly Flame Spear Rain]

The woman conjured millions of flame spears and dropped them on the legion. She wiped out countless puppets and even a few hundred ships with one attack. However, her action was her undoing. The 7-A puppets resisted, but as soon as they died, the five of them exploded into a Water Barrier Seal.

The woman was caught off guard, and the barrier surrounded her, sealing her into a vast ocean of water, a counter to her Flame Dao.

"No," her husband yelled as he rushed toward the seal. However, before he could touch it, an invisible puppet appeared behind him and plunged a dagger into his brain, directly killing him. All the puppets then focused on the calm monk while the surviving ships annihilated the Water Barrier Seal alone with the woman.
